The comments below (most recent first) are from our clients and their guests... unsolicited! They obviously refer to our work on the day and the photos themselves, but also to the comprehensive help we provide the couples when planning their CP.
Wow! What can we say? Didn't expect anything less, our pics are everything we wanted. You have captured the little details that made our day so much fun. How do you expect us to choose? [for the album] Lyn & Sara, Gallery 99Hi chaps! Bloody ace photos, Ev. May take us a while to choose! Helen & Lynn, Gallery 98
The pictures are absolutely amazing. You have made our wedding look more fantastic even than it was. We have just spent an hour crying and laughing, you are incredible! Adele & Kellie, Gallery 97
We could never thank you enough for making our special day so perfect. From start to finish you made us feel at ease and by the end of the day we felt like professional models. All our guests commented on what fabulous pictures you took and how great you were with everyone. We certainly had more than our monies worth and couldn't have asked for more. You truly have a gift. And Sue thanks so much also for the Reiki, I can't believe how much I was freaking out and how easily you calmed me down.Adele & Kellie, Gallery 97
[From honeymoon:] We've just had a look on line and we think the photos that you've put up are really really really FAB! Can't wait to see the rest of them! Steph & Janine, Gallery 96
We would just like to say to anyone who is considering whether to use " in the pink photography" for their event that Ev and Sue are an absolute must! They felt like additional gay guests who unobtrusively captured the uniqueness of our special day. For me it is their warmth and gentle support that was overwhelming. They are a great team. The pictures speak for themselves. But Ev and Sue just seemed to know where and when they needed to be - they took leads and suggestions and were open to in the moment thoughts and ideas as well as holding in mind all the previous discussions - two really great people who we shall certainly promote. Anne-Marie & Diane, Gallery 94
We've just looked through the photos on the internet and we had to email straight away to say how pleased we are with them. We knew they would be good but they are even better than we could have hoped. How we are going to pick 100 out of them we just don't know as we love them all.
So thank you so much. You both really made the day very special for us and with these photos we now have a great way to remember what a brilliant day it was. Graham & James, Gallery 93
[Comments on pdf proof for digital storybooks:]Thank you so much for getting the pdf to us so quickly! We have looked through it a few times and can see no alterations that we want to make to it, as we think it is fantastic enough already!! Therefore we are happy for it to go to print. Michelle & Victoria, Gallery 80
[Comments on newly-delivered digital storybooks:] We have looked at our album about 25 times, we love it! It's beautiful. Thank you so much. Jessica & Michelle, Gallery 92
Thank you so much for the beautiful albums and sharing our special day with us. Everyone who attended the wedding agreed you were the best photographers and we couldn't have asked for any more from the photos. Tori & Aurélie, Gallery 88
CD arrived as promised - just in time for our impromtu photo party. Photos are fantastic - all of them. Even if we say so ourselves - we look great as do our guests. Was this the photography?! You were both great on the day and so many of our guests have commented on the day and since, about both of you - appreciating both your professionalism and humour! You may well get some future bookings - especially now they have seen the photos too.
D&J, Gallery 90
The albums are brilliant, a really lovely memento of our day - thank you so much for recording it so beautifully! We love the leather covers, and the definition and colour of the photos themselves is fantastic. It was also important to us how well you handled our group on the day: unobtrusive, organised and with a sense of humour! We will definitely recommend you to friends and family in the future.
D&E, Chester
I would just like to thank you for the amazing job you did at my best friends wedding in Richmond a couple of weeks ago. I was the best man at the wedding and found that your prescence there was second to none. You were everywhere and captured every moment that I know the couple would have hoped for. However you weren't imposing in the slightest and really put everyone at their ease and this truly reflects in the photos you have taken. If and when I do get married myself then I will certainly be calling on your services. Once again thank you ever so much for your services on the day, you were truly wonderful!
Guest at Andrew & Nick's CP, Gallery 86
Just to let you know we received our albums and we are over the moon with them, they are absolutely stunning. We cannot thank you enough for all you did to help make our day perfect and also to enable us to keep the memories alive in such a beautiful way.
Elaine & Maxine, Gallery 82
From their honeymoon in Mexico: Oooooh my god, the photos are out of this world. Thank you so much.
Graham & Gary, Gallery 84
On viewing the pdf for their album: Wow!!!!We've looked through the album four times so far, what else can we say but it's absolutely beautiful, it has captured the day, our memories and emotions brilliantly. It is perfect.
Elaine & Maxine, Gallery 82
We've just looked at all the photos from S & K's ceremony, we think they are terrific. We thought you captured the event brilliantly.
S&H, guests S&K's CP, Gallery 78
We'd just like to say a big thank you to you both for the hard work you put in on the day. I'm not sure that dressing one of the brides is within your remit, however Cath most appreciated it.....as you could probably tell she was in a state of panic by then! All our guests thought you were fantastic and it just went to prove that we made the correct choice having you shoot our big day. We can't thank you enough, the photos are perfect and we couldn't have asked for a better service, above and beyond the call of duty!!
Mel & Cath, Gallery 77
Just wanted to say a huge thank you for all your brilliant hard work, and for the endless support you gave to us both. We had a beautiful day and we can hold on to it forever, thanks to you. It was magical because you were part of it.
Elaine & Maxine, Gallery 82
We would just like to say a massive THANK YOU for being such brilliant photographers on our special day. Our guests all said you were fantastic and the photos we received can only be described as masterful (you even made Vicky look good!!). We feel the photos truly convey the emotional feeling of the day, and we will certainly recommend you to anyone who will listen to our ramblings about how good you are! We couldn't have asked for better photographers.
Michelle & Victoria, Gallery 80
We just wanted to thank you both for all your efforts, hard work and friendly approach that you gave on our BIG DAY. I know we mentioned to you before you left, the positive remarks made by our guests, but wanted to tell you again how much 'good stuff' was said about you both. Also, when we went to collect our things from Ridgemont House, Darren and his staff spoke very highly of you both and said that you were the 'best' photographers they had worked with in 20 years. WOW!!! Thank you again, you made us both feel very special and at ease.
Bernadette & Claire, Gallery 79
Thanks for making us feel like celebrities on our special day! Can't wait to see the photos on our return.
S&K, Gallery 78
We are thrilled with the photos and are grateful for you getting the photobook through to us before our post-honeymoon party in Newcastle!! The photo book is great and we are so pleased we got it. Our day was so emotional and happy for us and we couldn't have been more pleased in having you both be a part of it. You helped to relax our guests and Sue's calm support (and healing when needed...) was so appreciated. We feel the pictures really do capture all the emotions of the day so well. The ceremony was so emotional for us and you have got some great photos that really bring those moments to life, and then later on when we were having so much fun there are so many of us laughing - which basically is all we two have done since we met five years ago. We do thank you so very much for everything and we will not be hesitating to recommend you to anyone that may ask.
Kay & Kerry, Gallery 76
Thank you so much for the photos, they are amazing! We can't stop looking at them. Choosing the final hundred [for the album] was almost impossible as each one was so lovely. Thank you again for everything, you both played a big part in making our day so special, we feel we've met two lovely friends.
A&M, Gallery 73
Gary & I would like to thank you personally for the memories you have provided.Your photos are stunning and it was so nice having a photographer (and team) that had a personal approach.
G&I, Gallery 69
Thank you so much for all your hard work in producing such beautiful photographs - there are so many that really reflect the dream of the day and our love for each other. We've got great pictures of the guests who wished to be on the photographs and the most amazing ones of ourselves, that will give us many wonderful memories in the days to come. People who have looked at the photographs on line have all said how lovely they are too. Everyone commented on your wonderful professionalism and encouragement of getting people on the pictures and smiling!
A&T, Manchester
We received the album. It is absolutely amazing, I can't thank you enough - can't wait to show it off. Thanks, thanks a million times for all you've done.
T&J, Bradford
"The album looks absolutely brilliant. Many thanks once again for the excellent photos and the support and help both you and Sue gave us on the day. We could not have done it without you."
J&D, Blackpool
"We just wanted to take some time to put into words our appreciation of your involvement in our Civil Partnership. It really was a special time for us and we look back on it with many fond memories, made all the more meaningful due to the lovely photos you took Ev! We have spent a good deal of time creating our own file of favourites but it was a very hard task as there were so many to choose from. Many friends and family have also enjoyed browsing the website and we've giggled away at some of the shots that really did capture the moment."
T&C, Doncaster
"Somehow thank you doesn't do justice for the gratitude we feel following your contribution to our Civil Partnership! You are both unique, wonderful professionals who made us feel entirely comfortable and relaxed. Our time with you will not be forgotten and I intend to recommend In the Pink to anyone with ears! Keep up the great work ladies and thank you again. You certainly did us proud!"
T&J, Bradford
"Many,many thanks for our beautiful album - we love it!"
E&E, York
"Thank you both so much for being part of our day. The photographs are just amazing. I don't know how we are ever going to choose between them! You were both such a natural part of the day and we can never thank you enough for every little detail."
K&L, Cumbria
"We wanted to thank you for the excellent service you provided for us, The pictures are unbelievable - it will be a difficult choice! We are so pleased you managed to photograph everyone who came - you must have eyes at the back of your head! Also for the extras you provided - the calming Reiki....getting people to sign the guest book...and generally looking after us. This allowed us to relax and enjoy everything...priceless. Once again, thank you so much, you are both sincere and kind people. We will certainly advertise your business."
J&H, Huddersfield
"Just a quick note to say a final thank you for the photos - they are beautiful, and we really will treasure them for the rest of our lives. You captured the mood of the day so well,and we loved the little detailed shots - the compass with our motif reflected in it is a stroke of genius. I hope that In the Pink goes from strength to strength; it certainly deserves to! Thank you so much again."
A&D, London
[A few hours after the website gallery has gone live:]"FANTASTIC! Thank you! They look absolutely brilliant - I have just had a quick look and will spend a happy evening with D tonight lingering over each one. I particularly love the ones of us by the Buddha, and the ones of us taking our vows are making me cry. Also there's some brilliant ones of our various friends. You really have captured the atmosphere, it's making me grin idiotically just looking at them. Thank you so so much, they will be a *very* precious record of the day. THANK YOU so much again!!"
[... and a couple of hours later:]"So much for spending the evening at home looking at them - I haven't managed to leave work yet because I have been so caught up in the website! They are so wonderful. And I am so glad that *finally* I have some really good photos of D - she's remarkably hard to photograph, I've never managed to get any photos which really capture her. I am so grateful!
Thank you again - those photos are very precious."
A&D, London
[Received a few hours after our meeting with the couple:]"Thank you so much for tonight – it’s really great to meet people with a knowledge, talent and passion for their work. We’re really looking forward to you being part of our unique day."
G&D, Manchester
"Hi Evelyn and Sue. We met at my sister’s CP at the windmill in Cley. I just viewed the photos and wanted to write and say how fantastic they were. So quirky and imaginative. But at the same time you caught the happiness of Sally and Helen perfectly. I loved the shots on the beach [...] and I shall be ordering lots of prints as soon as I can force myself to make a choice."
J, guest at Cley Next the Sea
"The photos are fabulous fabulous fabulous - thank you so much for capturing our special moments so skillfully and beautifully. You've done a fantastic job, and we're delighted with the results!"
S&H, Cley Next the Sea
"Just a slightly belated note of thanks for the fantastic job you did at our CP. I did want to just say thank you for being so helpful in the run up and on the day, and for all your energy and enthusiasm! I was most impressed by the way you managed to get everyone to do what they were told, while getting them to relax and laugh. And you made it very non-intimidating for D and I to have a camera pointing at us - thank you for that. We will be recommending you heartily to those of our friends who are currently planning CPs!"
A&D, London
"The album [digital storybook] is better than either of us could have anticipated - it is absolutely beautiful! Thanks for everything and keep up the great work - your service is truly amazing!"

M&I, Todmorden
"Just a short note to say a very big thank you. You and Sue not only were great at the photographs but also as new friends. We felt so safe with you both there and you provided a safety net for us with the organisation etc."
Thank you so much for the photos. We can't think of a superlative strong enough, they are truly wonderful and bring back some wonderful memories."
B&J, Criccieth
"We got the DVDs and are delighted with the photographs. You did a great job. Everybody we have shown the photographs to are very pleased and impressed with the results. You worked so hard on the day marshalling our hapless family and friends while putting everyone at their ease but with such calm and authority that everybody felt happy. We are particularly pleased that you captured so much in such a few hours and would not hesitate to recommend you to friends for their big day. Sue was a calming influence, always there to help and look after things. You are a great team. And thank you both for the card it was an unexpected lovely gesture which we really appreciated.
The gallery of photographs are great and it has meant that my sister in Australia is able to view the photos too as well as our friend who came all the way from the States to be there with us."
B&C, London
[Star letter in Diva magazine, January 2008:] Just wanted to thank Diva for helping us find our fantastic photographers for our CP last July. "In the Pink Photography" were brilliant, and we'd definitely recommend them to any couple tying the knot."
K&S, Walsall
[From a couple after our pre-CP meeting:] "Hi Ev and Sue, It was really good to meet you on Sunday. I am very pleased that we found you for our day. You both are very easy to get along with, I was very much at ease with you both. I think it is one of the reasons why you take such good photos, you put people at their ease."
W&S, Skipton
"Thanks for getting the photos to us yesterday - they really are lovely. We are very very happy with them. Thanks for working so hard on the day to capture so many lovely moments.

We want to thank you both for your hard work - both on the day & in producing the finished results afterwards. We'd also both like to say how much we appreciated what you both brought personally to our special day - & that you were a big part of what a joy & success that was. All I can say is that you exceeded our high expectations."

Wonderful."
PS, father of one of the grooms, Manchester, gallery 19

We are having so many fantastic comments about the photos, as our guests are starting to look at them on the web. Everyone agrees that they are really wonderful; here is a comment pasted from an email from [one of our guests]:
"I think all the photos are absolutely ace, Ev really captured the mood and brought the best out of people. Everyone looks so relaxed. Even if I do say so myself I am actually quite pleased with the way I look on them ,and that's saying something."
So there we go, need we say more. We are enjoying looking at them time and time again and showing them to others who weren't able to be there."
E&E, York
"The photos are fantastic. They are so natural and capture the whole day, the atmosphere and the happiness. Better than a video! You are truly talented, with an eye for detail. I would certainly book you should any of my three decide to take the plunge!"
L&C, guests at Oswestry, Gallery 10
"Thank you very much for the lovely photographs you took of our ceremony. The album is a superb memento of the occasion. We're really glad that you took photos of both the ceremony and the party - rather than just at the Register Office, which had been our original idea. It means we have a complete record of the day."
P&K, Birmingham

turning them around so quickly! Thanks
